A new tarot shop opened in Pike Place Market about a month ago, adding a unique metaphysical offering to Seattle’s most iconic destination. Tucked into a tiny spot in the Market’s Lower Levels, the cozy little shop is a must-visit if you’re looking for a tarot deck, an in-depth, personalized reading, or tools for enhancing your intuition.
Read on for all the details!
Despite its small footprint, Tarot Crow carries one of the largest selections of tarot and oracle decks on the West Coast. Visitors can browse more than 120 tarot decks, a number owner Andrew Corax believes makes it the largest variety in the Pacific Northwest. Corax, who describes himself on the shop’s website as an avid tarot reader and educator, has curated a collection that spans a wide range of themes, art styles, and traditions, including decks created by local authors. Corax also plans to introduce a buy, sell, and trade program, giving pre-loved decks a second life while helping build community among Seattle’s tarot enthusiasts.
Tarot Crow’s inventory extends beyond cards. The shop features Corax’s own line of handmade products: vegan soy candles, herbal incense, crystal-centered bath bombs, and body oils. All products are created without synthetics and made using natural botanicals. Corax is especially known for his fragrance blends inspired by the archetypes of the Major Arcana: Justice, The Lovers, The Hermit, and so on—perfect for gifting. Each item is produced locally at his studio in Post Alley, just steps away from the market.
For those seeking a guided experience, Tarot Crow offers tarot readings. You can book in person or online, with 15-minute walk-in readings available for market visitors. Corax is also preparing to launch individual and group classes focused on reading and understanding tarot. Whether someone is looking for insight through a single reading, tools to deepen their practice, or a sense of connection, Corax says his goal is to help people “find ideal tools to expand your intuition.”
Tarot Crow is located next to Ventures Market and Balcony Barber in Pike Place Market’s Lower Levels—down the stairs by the fish throwers and then to the right. The shop is open daily from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., with Tuesdays available by appointment only. Find more information on the Tarot Crow website and Instagram.
